I have tried to improve the article with references to several publications outside SWAD and the University of Granada. --Acanas (talk) 10:52, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A little better. Still needs to have inline links taken out. I say keep for now at least while an effort is in progress to show independent notability. Anyone speak Spanish to verify? W Nowicki (talk) 23:04, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The system has a niche target so there aren't really reviews in the normal sense. There are a few articles from when it was released that mostly reproduce the PR [1], but these three are useful [2] [3] [4]. Searching GScholar yields a lot of results; some are passing mentions and a large number of papers are from people in the UGR (which I don't think makes them automatically non-independent, but I won't push it), but they're not all: from the University of Costa Rica [5] (already in the article, but with the PDF hosted at OpenSWAD), and also [6] [7], [8] provide enough independent commentary to build an article — Frankie (talk) 14:48, 22 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
